That is not true, please don't put your assumption as to what my words state.

Some level of effort could be - tracking a mob from noon-9pm.. and if it spawns outside that window, you dont expect to engage it

Some level of effort could be - poopsocking (I hope nobody takes this seriously)

There are many things that could be defined as "some level of effort" not just 96+ hours of tracking and waking up at 4am to kill the mob. Thats the current top guilds' level of effort, i'm not trying to turn the other guilds into us.

The key word being SOME

right now, the level of effort being put in is "please dont raid during week x" Given that the top guilds have established themselves as "RAIDING" guilds, asking them to go against their "reason for being" is not a very persuasive argument.

It's not unreasonable to ask for a week of mobs. It is unreasonable to expect casual guilds to track for any amount of time and think they still have a chance at the mob. I don't care if it's 3 hours or 30, most reasonable people don't have their laptops tethered with them at all times to be able to answer a batphone at a moment's notice. Even if a casual guild were to "get lucky" and happen to be tracking the mob when it pops, they're not likely to get it and as has been seen recently, they're not likely to get it even when it spawns right in front of them while they have a raid force present.

Any level of effort short of doing exactly what TMO and FE does is not likely to get you any mobs.
